Re: Clutchnet Vs. Spec
Dealing with CN now over them sending the wrong PP. Company has zero customer service and seems to send the wrong PP quite a bit. Will never buy from CN again.

Re: attempt at 9's failed
I have no fears of spending money, i just really did not want to spend money in places i did not need it. I still feel that my stock springs/shocks are up to the task, but I would like to increase my street traction by getting the shocks adjusted a bit better, and a longer, possibly progressive rat...

Re: attempt at 9's failed
The motor/trans is only part of the equation to running good numbers......Suspension goes a long ways once you get so fast...Time to start spending a little money in that area before you have an accident.....

Re: Darkhorizon + a budget more than a hamburger =
yea I am wondering if a headgasket is letting go, thus pressurizing the cooling system to a point of blowing a hose. Lets just hope it was a loose clamp though considering everything was just installed in a rush, and this was nothing more then a simple oversight of under tightening a clamp. Also sa...

Re: Batteries
I am running a red top Optima in my car that a traded for about 4 years ago. You can't kill the damn thing even if you try. Back in the summer my car sat for about a month and when I got back to driving it the car fired right up. I left my running lights for a weekend which killed the battery. I 2 a...

88 Lowering Balljoint
Anyone know what year and model of balljoints is used for the 88 lowering balljoints? I want to pick up a set locally so I can install them this week. Seems like I read they where from a Caddy.

Re: Finally Hit 11s...
Now that I have tires (Mickey Thompson 255/50 16s) I'm going to get a little more aggressive with the car. No matter what I did before, the all-seasons would spin like hell with any sort of power applied. Even with no burnout or anything, these tires just hook the hell up. Replacement transmissions...

Re: FIERO LAND SPEED
I have had my car up to the 140s while tuning on 3 occasions in the same day. The car handles alot better than I thought it would and felt solid. We did a 4rth run but at around 130 the right headlight door came up, the front end started dipping side/side and the car came very unstable. This was don...

Re: 3400 fiero, mid 13's
I meant low 13s--Hit wrong key and didn't re-read.Shaun41178(2) wrote:low 12's? So you are saying its a potential 115 mph car? thats roughly the mph needed to do a low 12 in a fiero. if thats the case, then when he ran it at the track he must have been trapping around 108 even if only running high 13's.

Re: 3400 fiero, mid 13's
if it ran a 13.8 at 100 mph then I would say no to having more left in it. If it ran 13.8 at 110, then I would say yes to it having more in it. Remember drcpu has made multiple trips down the qtr mile now, all running upper 13's at around 101 mph. I don't remember the MPH but I can tell you the car...

Re: 3400 fiero, mid 13's
Yes--his LS1/6 speed Formula ran high 13.8 down here in Texas. I can say the car had more in it and if had a good driver would have went faster.THE PUNISHER wrote:IF Xthumper X ran a low 14 with his , I have no doubt mid 13's is attainable stock.
didn't one of archies 6spd LS1 cars recently run a high 13?

good luck with the sale.
The car now has or least it did when I last saw it--A LS1 TB and a much larger upper intake tube to match the TB.
